Student accommodation to be opened for Ukraine refugeesStudent accommodation will be made available for Ukrainian refugees arriving in Ireland, the Minister for Higher Education Simon Harris has said. Are you serious SimonHarrisTD ? So come September when students return to college the accommodation crisis will be worse than the last few years? All happy and well I support us brining in Ukrainian refugees but erm.. I’d appreciate if I didn’t have to commute for 2 hours to college every morning and that Accomodation went to myself and others in similar and worse situations. Fix up the thousands of derelicts maybe? Ah he’s gas, what student accommodation. Where’s this coming outta. Students don’t have accommodation as it currently stands.

It’s a joke & the joke is on us Just like that Amazing how quickly they could do that for refugees and not actual homeless Irish people. 🧐
